SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Athletic apparel retailer lululemon could be on its way to the Syracuse market.

The company is hiring for a Syracuse showroom, according to its website, but didn't respond to a request for comment. The job postings don't give an exact location for the chain's planned site in Syracuse.

Lululemon showrooms carry a smaller selection of merchandise than regular stores and are only open part of the week, according to the company's website.

Famed for its "yoga-inspired" attire, lululemon opened its first store in 2000 in Vancouver, British Columbia. The company now has locations throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, Asia and Australia.

In New York, the chain has showrooms in the Buffalo and Rochester markets and a number of regular stores in the New York City area.
